Nashville, TN – The Tennessee Republican Party released the following statement from Chairman Ryan Haynes to mark the anniversary of our nation’s independence:
“You cannot strengthen or weaken America because it is an idea—an enduring one—that opened a new horizon for mankind. No longer would individuals have to submit to a monarch, be constrained by class, or be governed by geography. Instead, a free society was formed, founded on the principles of self-reliance, limited government, economic independence, and religious liberty.
“That founding notion of our nation is what we celebrate this Independence Day. 240 years later, it remains relevant, continues to be the standard for liberty, and offers hope to the oppressed around the globe.”
